Begin your day with a tour of the Munnar Tea Museum, which provides insight into the history of tea in India and offers a firsthand look at the tea-making process. Afterward, ride to the Kolukkumalai Tea Estate, the highest tea plantation in the world, where you can witness the stunning views of the Western Ghats. Take a guided tour of the tea factory to learn how the tea leaves are processed into tea. You'll enjoy panoramic views of the hills, valleys, and dense forests while riding through the winding roads of the tea plantations.
Start your day early with a visit to the Eravikulam National Park, which is home to an array of endangered animals such as the Nilgiri Tahr, Tiger, and Indian Bison. Then, head to the Lakkam Waterfalls, where you can relax and unwind amidst nature. Enjoy the beauty of the cascading water or take a refreshing dip in the cool water for an adrenalized adventure. In the evening, ride to the Chinnakanal Waterfalls. The waterfall is surrounded by lush green tea gardens and provides an opportunity for a stunning photoshoot. Fun Fact: Chinnakanal Waterfalls was featured in a song sequence in the popular Bollywood movie, Guru (2007).
If you have more time, we suggest that you visit the Mattupetty Dam for a stunning panoramic view of the Western Ghats, ride along the Kundala Dam Lake, and visit the Top Station for a breathtaking view of panoramic valley. If you have less time, you can skip the Lakkam Waterfalls and spend more time exploring other places on the itinerary. Additionally, make sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes, bring a jacket, a water bottle, and a camera to capture the beauty of Munnar.
